DescriptionThis limited edition book and print portfolio illustrate the poems of Jules Laforgue, the 19th century French symbolist poet. Caulfield's homage to the writer, who was known for his irony, fresh imagery, and coinage of new words, is very much a Pop conflation of high and low culture.On View
